Beckett Personal Injury Lawyers is a personal injury firm based in downtown London, Ontario, with seven senior partners. Chris Beckett started a first law firm, Ledroit Beckett, in London in 1999, then established Beckett Personal Injury Lawyers in 2013 to focus the practice on personal injury litigation. The firm's lawyers work in two groups: a Plaintiff Injury Group, led by Mary-Anne Strong, that handles motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, product liability, and long-term disability claims, and a Sexual Abuse Group, led by Robert Talach, that represents survivors of abuse by clergy, coaches, teachers, and other people in positions of trust.
The sexual abuse practice traces back to Talach's work on the 2003 case J.R.S. v. Glendenning, an early Canadian trial decision involving institutional abuse, and the firm has since handled hundreds of similar claims. Ontario designated Beckett as counsel for the Victims' Group at the Cornwall Public Inquiry, held from 2005 to 2009 into decades of alleged abuse by local clergy, police, and other authority figures. The Sexual Abuse Group now represents survivors across Canada outside Quebec, drawing on lawyers licensed in Ontario, British Columbia, New Brunswick, and other provinces, and the firm arranges counselling for clients who would otherwise lack access to mental health support.
